The hotel is nice, very well located. personnel was nice as well.. the only issue we had was that our room was super noisy! we couldn't sleep in the entire night; seems like the elevator needs some maintenance to keep it quiet.!
our breakfast was included and it was very good...overall was good.

Did not like tablet in room. It was not easy to figure out how to find out things. Wanted to have breakfast. Couldn’t tell if the hotel had a breakfast other then the coffee juice and muffin. The pool was closed for remodel. Brought granddaughter for first trip to Chicago and we had booked because of location and family friendly only to find out no pool.

Stunning Historic Hotel. Due to our late check-in we were upgraded to a suite on the 11th floor. Bed was wonderfully firm, slept like a stone. Exposed woodwork on the furniture could use a thorough cleaning, otherwise, cleanliness of the facility was superb.

The location is excellent. An easy walk to all of our desired stops. Ample parking across the street. The lounge is gorgeous. We have stayed here multiple times. This is an old hotel and the rooms are on the small side, but the building has plenty of character and beautiful details. The only complaint this visit is that the hallways were thick with marijuana odor. I am under the impression that no smoking is no smoking. Not just cigarettes. This was not just from one room, but multiple as we walked through the halls.

Bathroom was dirty and in need of repair. Shower head barely attached to the wall. Constantly leaking. Toilet paper was worse than some gas stations I've been to. Room in need of a lot of cosmetic repair to the furniture.

The room was incredibly small. There was no complimentary coffee. The bathroom was also very small. The room was sold as a room for 2 people but it is barely sufficient for one person.
